Recent scores

We had two great weeks travelling in Europe recently but after finding no JAJs to bring home, I was in serious need of a good Pyrex fix.  Well boy did I get one yesterday!  Look at this beauty waiting for me at VV:

A huge square base delphite!!  What made it even better was the price.  Only $3.99!!  I hugged this baby with a big smile on my face all the way to the cashier!  :)

Later in the day, I met a lady on craigslist who was moving and selling her mother's Pyrex.  I happily took these off her hands:

The fridgies are older ones, since the lid has the flat part in the middle.  Even though the lids have a lot of little chips, the paint on those fridgies are near mint.  Someone took very good care of these babies for many years!  I know the lid on the orange 043 doesn't belong to it, but I found it earlier in the day for a dollar and it gets the job done.

Like a few others around here, I've also done some great trading.  Got these today:
So happy to have the small designs to go with my bigger one to complete that set.  And you can't go wrong with teal snowflake and a lime pie plate  :)

  3. The Delphite bowl wuith the square bottom is an amazing score!

    In my eyes it is priceless! Those bowls go for around 65$

    I use mine quite a lot, the size is just right when you can or have a lot of people over.
